“We were offered a termination 4 other times because my baby was like me.”

October 18, 2023/in Ableism, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Monica Snyder

Harry Potter Explains How Fetuses are People

April 10, 2023/in Ableism, Personhood, Philosophy, Uncategorized /by Elise Ketch

Harry Potter is a wizard by his essential kind. That means, because he inherited the nature of his two wizard parents, Harry belongs to the kind […]
